I'm going to wager those beautiful pants lasted not much longer than one washing. I don't think stretchy material and bleach goes together well. I might try this on a pair of black denims but I would mix bleach with a liquid dish detergent such as Palmolive and mostly likely more soap than bleach.
The tape is regular old masking tape, but you could probably use anything with similar results, like painters tape or packaging tape.
They have lasted quite a few washings now with no signs of falling apart. You mix the bleach with equal parts water, so that might be important, and it doesn't set that long, just long enough to get a color change. Using soap sounds interesting, I hope you post pictures of your results!
Enjoy!
